It's a Baby Helicopter!!

[stone]

Well it must be about five year's now,since I read about micro indoor heli's.

Back then I thought,Im going to have one of them when they get cheeper.Well now they are!!

She's so cute, &| :p

Now,learn how to fly all over again.........yay.......

My biggest issue is that I fly mode 1 with a fixed wing aircraft,so the throttel is on the right and the elorvator on the left.

But the heli is diffrent,figures.

Im not detered by this as RC Nuts says It can be converted,By the by Great price mate,cheers. But anyway ,now I have had a dordel on the flight sim I think I should just leave it.

Im just concerned that I might get the dreded DUMB THUMBS when I switch from flying the heli back to the Avistar. !dodge !violin

If it makes you any happier I just broke 3 out of 4 of the blades and bent the centre shaft on the better halfs FP heli just now :(

[Scott]

lol at the both of you.

[stone]

Crash number 2, more broken blades!!

So I doged up a damaged pair of Carbon Fiber blades with epoxy and they fly great. Have put about 10 packs through it now , so my stick time on the real thing has well past the sim time already.

Fun Fun.

Crash #3

Broke one of the CF legs that go into the skids.

I was up about 2 meters and I craped my self n droped the gas,she fell like a rock, hit the deck and belted one of the ping pong balls across the road with one of the blades.

Further damage inspection needed.

[TopGear]

Shit dude thats no good lol I thought CF was meant to be strong these parts seem to break easy!

[stone]

Mate, for the wieght they are very strong.But only flex to a point unfortunatley.She hit preety hard aye,Im suprised the blades didnt hit the ground,but they came very close.

Crash #4

Busted tail boom,what bloody mision to fix.had to transfer everything over too the new chassis.

But it all seem good,well except I didnt super glue the new boom on,I tryed too hot glue it but it wont hold firm enough.
The idea is next time I will only have to buy a $7 boom instead of the chassis/boom pack at $20.

Needs either tiny grub screws or shoe goo or somethin I can get apart later,Hmmmm.

[TopGear]

yeh I had to drill the old boom out and had to cut the wires, so now I have the wires running on the outside of the boom haha the new boom seems to fit in prety snug which is good. My carbon fibre rotors are all chopped up from hitting the ground so I bought some wooden ones.

[stone]

LoL,my plan worked flawlesly,I broke the Tail boom AGAIN,but this time it will only cost $6 or $7.
And it will only be a five minuet job to fix.

[TopGear]

haha nice work! yeh Ive nearly gone through my new rotors already too :(

[stone]

Yeh the wood ones are fragile as.The damaged CF one's that Ive fixt have taken a beating, and they ballenced out quite well when I finaly did do it proply.

I didnt balence the wood ones that I have already broken,but the dodgy CF one still fly better than the wood ones ever did.

Havent got the new boom yet,My boss forgot to Pay us apparenly.Talk about a sober weekend.

[stone]

Well the body is well due for a make over,the wind screen is malting little blue bits everywhere.

Less than $20 got me a clear body that needs cutting and painting.She should look diffrent,but didnt feel very arty tonight,ar well who cares.
